Abstract

Boarding house as a type of temporary residence functions to ensure the continuity of daily domestic activities, as well as a comfortable place to study for students as its occupants. The multimodal method employed in architectural studio learning requires using more than one strategy in the learning process, such as through design simulations or making study models. As a result, compared to the unimodal approach, there are spatial consequences for learning privacy that affect individual and group learning processes. This research explores the privacy mechanism in boarding rooms as private workspaces for architecture students. Phenomenological qualitative methods are applied, with data collection techniques ranging from observation, interviews, and sketches to document readings. The research findings show that architecture students optimize space by modifying spatial attributes such as layout, wall openings, material and furniture. This ensures that learning takes place in the maximum privacy possible, enabling a practical function of multimodal learning activities.

Abstract

As the world's population is getting older, the condition of elderly experience mobility limitations, sensory impairments, and cognitive decline. There is an increasing need to address the elderly’s health and life quality. Concurrently, biophilic design has gained recognition as a promising approach to enhance human health and well-being by incorporating natural elements into the built environment. Integrating place identity and place attachment principles into the early stages of planning and construction can optimize the benefits for elderly residents. The research’s purpose is to find how the place attachment could help to improve the well-beingness of elderly. This research examines the cases of detached house with field studies and analyses it from the principle of place identity and the dimension of place attachment to make an adaptation also modifications to accommodate specific needs. The resulting concept is the use of vegetation, the dynamics of wall textures and colours, furniture, railings, and Chinese geometry for creating age-friendly and sustainable environments.

Abstract

This paper aims to identify elements of Batuan painting, a local Balinese painting, that potentially become the basis of the architecture design method. The explorations of painting become an alternative in developing design methods as explored by some architects, such as Zaha Hadid, Van Doesburg, and Gerrit Thomas Rietveld. Arguably, such approaches offer different insights into programming architecture and further enrich the design process by creating particular relations with the context, instead of producing a generic and contextless architecture. In this study, the local Batuan painting that is related closely to the daily life of the Balinese community and local philosophy is explored as an attempt to relate architecture with the locality and cultural identity as part of the design process. This study employs the qualitative approach by visual observations and content analysis of Batuan paintings, identifying the elements, compositions, and important aspects that are always present in Batuan paintings. This study reveals that there are three elements from Batuan painting that are essential for the design method, namely heterogeneity, hierarchy, and the particular local painting techniques of ngucek-ngurek-ngabur. Such elements were particularly developed by the painters from Batuan Village to represent the everydayness of the local society to Tri Hita Karana, Hulu-Teben, and Tri Mandala philosophy. Furthermore, the elements imply further the spatial classifications of local activities, dualism principles, and the embedded relationship between humans, humans with nature, and humans with God. The painting elements insinuate further insights for the basis of developing the architecture, particularly in the formal and spatial arrangements as well as spatial qualities, which could be more culturally meaningful and contextually situated.

Abstract

Natural lighting is one aspect of ecological architecture to reduce energy use by utilizing sunlight as the main lighting. However, direct and excessive sunlight decreases the comfort level of room users because it can increase the room temperature and interfere with visualization. So it takes control of the distribution of sunlight into the room. In addition, the issue of environmental damage has become hot news among the community today, especially in the property sector, such as using materials that can damage the surrounding environment. Efforts to regulate the entry of sunlight into the room but not harm the surrounding environment, one of which is the application of second skin that utilizes environmentally friendly materials. This paper aims to determine the form and material of secondary skin that is environmentally friendly and suitable for use in resort hotels. This research uses a qualitative comparative method based on three objects in the form of secondary skin in the hotel resort building: Ananta Legian Hotel Bali, EcoSuites (A Reed-Clad Hotel Greece), and Lenora Hotel Bandung with variables namely opening, shape, and shading. For three secondary skin material objects in the resort hotel building, namely Amnaya Resort Kuta, Four Points by Sheraton Bali, and Potato Heads Studio Hotel Bali with variables namely shape, material, and aesthetics. Based on the results of the study, it was found that there are two types of second skin openings that are applied to the hotel resort building, namely dead openings and sliding openings that are applied to adjust the shape with the dominance of the modified rectangular base shape and the shadow produced from the second skin itself adjusts to the function of the shaded space. Environmentally friendly materials used are made from nature, such as vegetation, wood, and roaster bricks that do not damage the surrounding environment, which are applied in a modified rectangular base shape and can improve the aesthetics of the building.

Abstract

New urbanism, originally meant a reform movement and then developed into a new paradigm in urban design. However, recently researchers argue that the attractiveness of new urbanism has begun to diminish so that it has lost its significance. The research was conducted to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the Simpang Lima Area and Jalan Pahlawan Semarang when viewed using the theory of Urban dimension and New Urbanism, so that it can be an evaluation for related parties. The steps taken in the study used three stages, namely the initial stage of description. At this time, the researcher describes what he saw, heard, and understood. For the first time, researchers get a glimpse of the results of the informants. reduction stage. In this stage, researchers retrieve all the information from previous meetings to concentrate on one particular problem. Selection stage. At this stage, the researcher will detail the problem that is the focus, which will then be analyzed in more depth. The research location is at Simpang Lima or called the Pancasila Field which is one of the Landmarks of Semarang City, in the form of an open space used by Semarang City residents for activities. The city of Semarang is synonymous with Simpang Lima because many big events are held here, besides that Simpang Lima is also the center of the crowd of the city of Semarang. The final results of the research produce topics using information that is used to produce some new knowledge, hypotheses, or even theories.

Abstract

Semiotics as a science that studies signs have a wide range of knowledge and one of them is in the field of Architecture which is a result of the cultural process of society because architectural works are the embodiment of the life of that society. Semiotics as the science of signs is capable of being a tool in tracing cultural relations in architectural objects or works. Pura Mandharagiri Semeru Agung as an architectural work that carries Balinese Hindu culture is an architectural work located at the foot of Mount Semeru, to be precise in an area called Senduro in Lumajang district. An architectural object in the form of a gate with the name Wringinlawang stands proudly at the entrance to the area. Wringinlawang in shape and color has a style that is different from the style in the temple area. Therefore, there is a need for a study related to the existence of the wringinlawang object in the middle of the temple area which carries Balinese Hindu culture. To trace the process of wringinlawang's existence and its meaning to the surrounding community, semiotics will be the main tool in tracing the sign, which in this case is the Gapura Wringinlawang. The purpose of this research is to explore the factors influencing the meaning of the Gapura Wringinlawang and to explore the relationship between the signs that are formed. The method used in this research is qualitative research using interview data alongside a literature review. The results of Charles S. Pierce's semiotic study show that the Gapura Wringinlawang contains a symbol of cultural identity for the Senduro community around the temple building. The culture in question is Javanese culture which is manifested through the building style used in the Gapura Wringinlawang building because of the context of the location.

Abstract

Urban sprawl is a phenomenon characterized by the accidental movement of residents from the downtown to the urban periphery. This urban sprawl phenomenon tends to hurt the urban boundary. The concept of spatial hybrid can indirectly be indicated as a form of sustainable urban development that overcomes the problems caused by the negative ImpactImpact of urban sprawl in the urban periphery. This study uses the constructivism paradigm. The strategy in this research is a combination of qualitative research and case studies. It specifically selected case studies in the area of Darmo Permai Surabaya-Indonesia. The Darmo Permai area is a form of urban sprawl that began in 1973. The Darmo Permai area finds harmony between the newcomer and residents through an adaptation process. This harmony is manifested in a hybrid space analyzed from the social aspect of sustainability. The hybrid space is founded based on the activities of its residents, which are characterized by five aspects of the hybrid space. The five aspects of the hybrid space are coexistence, transfusion, interconnection, ambivalence, and heterogeneity.

Abstract

Behavior aspects cover response of interaction between human and places, showing existence of interactive spaces that not only describes behavior but also the place character. Currently, the level of need for human social and economic interaction is increasingly binding. Purpose of this study is to identify behavior of users in public space especially in utilizing space when they carry out social and economic activities simultaneously, and to question whether the creation of public space can reflect the character of identity. Activities to be observed are in residential corridor of Sekarbela, Mataram City. This space is used daily as space for social and economic interaction. This is qualitative research using grounded theory and case study. Data collection techniques were carried out by observation, description, and documentation. Interactive analysis model is used with descriptive analysis of behavior setting in Sekarbela corridor. The results show that social and economic activities are behavior identities in public space of urban settlement. The routine activities of production, distribution, and consumption in this area unwittingly make this space unified and give more meaning to a public space; not only perceived social and economic space separately but intertwined each other and makes the public space more vibrant.
